A layered wine with bright red cherries, dried cherries, sweet violets and a lot of licorice on the nose. Medium-bodied and very supple and refreshing on the palate, with lightly framed tannins and a crunchy finish. Drink or hold. (AF)

Timely rain in late August alleviated the stress experienced by the vines during a very hot summer. Considerable richness comes through on the nose, with its mulchy cherry aromas. It's an intense wine with firm acidity and distinct sour cherry flavours. Vibrant, youthful, and surprisingly fresh, it has a pungent finish that promises a long future. (SB)

The 2022 Chianti Classico is an elegant, gracious wine. Silky tannins frame a core of bright red-toned fruit, rose petal, cinnamon and blood orange. The Chianti Classico is 90% Sangiovese and 10% Canaiolo. The Syrah, once one of founder Paolo De Marchi's quirky touches with this wine, is gone. The 2022 spent 12 months in cask. (AG)
